- Services and Facility Collaborations: The area of greatest collaboration is in building services, where we provide the physical plant (space) for many other programs to use as their offices and headquarters. There are no charge-backs for office space to fee-funded programs or student organizations. Also, we share our facility repair and maintenance, as well as our custodial program with other fee-funded entities, such as the Cultural Centers, the Student Sustainability Center, the Pride Center, and the OSU Childcare Center (new for FY 15). This keeps the costs of repair and custodial programs in those areas at “cost” and absent any overhead, a savings in operational cost for these fee funded groups. Other collaborations involve the academic programs in Food System’s Management courses, who “take over” the Pangea restaurant each year for one week. The MU Basement is the host to several PAC classes.
